I am helping a friend get her TO35 running properly. It has the continental gasoline engine, and it appears to have a TSX carburetor. It starts when choke is pulled, but will only run when choke is held on, even when warmed up. It sat over the winter and the fuel sediment bowl had a lot of junk in it, and the air filter was filthy and full of sludge. Sea Foam did nothing. I cleaned the air filter, sediment bowl, and drained the carb bowl. It ran fine when I mowed with it over a year ago. A couple of other people have mowed with it since then but they didn't do any maintenance.
Does it sound like I need to remove and clean the carburetor completely?
Do you disconnect/reconnect the linkages with the carburetor unbolted? Access is limited.
How do you adjust the idle wingnut that is behind the carburetor? It it's cramped in there between the manifold, with the fuel line, air hose, plus the heat from the exhaust manifold.
